Stur-Dee Budget

If your boat requires a large truck to be trailered, or too big to ever be trailered, you have left the land of affordable boating. Certainly there are boats in the 18-24 range that can be less expensive than a healthy golfing habit, but for the most part - you are pouring money overboard. We know a few who trailer a Stur-Dee Dory behind their Hondas, catch loads of fish in big water and also maintain a healthy golfing habit (Nautics Blog does not endorse, recommend or understand the use of Golf Clubs, balls, or Clubs.). Thanks to the high gunwales, flaired bow, comfortable seating and excellent use of 25 4-stroke horses, these boats are no-brainers. Next time you are fishing to the sound of 8 gallons per hour at idle and a Stur Dee Dory rolls by - honestly evaluate your boating requirements and investment - Stur Dee and other Dories make a ton of sense.
